The misunderstanding here is that conventional ownership does not
apply to intellectual "property"; in fact, it is not "property" at all
and we should stop treating it as if it was.
It is even harder to do any more than credit the body of knowledge on
which any item of intellectual property is based, and therein lies the
rub. If I produce an Android killer application that makes me a
fortune, how much money is Linus Torvalds entitled to?
And then the other side: who gets punished for Assad using biochemical
weapons?
